In-room kettle or coffee machine: Vienna espresso versus a guest kettle

In-room kettle or coffee machine: Vienna espresso versus a guest kettle

These are different jobs. A kettle boils water for tea and instant drinks on the guest tray. Vienna is an espresso machine on a direct water supply.

Guest kettle on the welcome tray

Roomwell Mira Double Wall Kettle, 0.6 L

Guest kettle. Mira 0.6 L or Uno 1.0 L sits on the welcome tray. No plumbing, a cordless base, boil-dry protection, and a 3 year warranty. This is the default for a standard UK or UAE guest room at 220-240 V.

Vienna where the room is plumbed

Roomwell Vienna espresso coffee machine

Vienna. The Roomwell Vienna espresso machine is 1400 W at 220-240 V, 50 Hz, with a direct water supply rather than a jug the guest fills. The listed size is 118 x 302 x 230 mm, net weight 3.1 kg, with CE, CB, RoHS and GS. Warranty on this model is 2 years. It belongs where the design has a water feed and a drip tray, such as a suite pantry, a club lounge servery, or a room that is specified for espresso rather than a kettle.

Do not swap them on the drawing

A kettle does not make espresso. Vienna is not a cordless tray kettle, and it is not a US 120 V pod machine. If the project is in the United States, specify the 120 V K-Cup or single-cup brewer instead.

Typical kettle lead time is 8 to 10 weeks. Ask sales for the Vienna lead time against the same programme, because a plumbed machine needs a site services check as well as the appliance.

Quick answer: Use a guest kettle for the bedroom tray. Specify the Vienna 1400 W direct-water espresso machine where the room or pantry needs coffee on a plumbed supply.
